Picture size

Hi. Astrobin zooms in some 15 % all my pictures once in the main window show (after clicking the initial image). Am I doing ani¡ything wrong or is there any setting that I missed? Thank you for your attention.

OK. I've spent some minutes to discover that Astrobin adapts, to a certain extent, the width of the picture to the width of the main window of the program. I would suggest that the maximum width of the picture be limited to its actual pixel size regardless of how big the main program window is.

The problem is just that the medium size is already zoomed in excess this 15 % that I mention, and it makes the image bigger than the full original resolution. In this way, you get an oversized image with some unnecesary softening of borders.

I would like that Astrobin considered the full resolution of an image as an insuperable limit.
